==Skills needed==

Gas harvesting has very few skills related to it. The primary skill is [[Skills:Resource Processing#Gas Cloud Harvesting|Gas Cloud Harvesting]], which can be bought for 24M isk from the usual NPC sellers. This skill requires [[Skills:Resource Processing#Mining|Mining 4]] to inject. You can only use one gas cloud harvester per trained skill level. Note that this is very different from normal mining, where the number of mining lasers is not determined by skills. Getting the skill to 5 allows for Tech 2 harvesters to be used, which have 50% increased yield over Tech 1. Gas Cloud Harvesting should be trained either to 2 (to equip two harvesters on a Venture or Prospect) or 5 (to use T2 harvesters).

*To mine a gas ~~cloud you will need~~ the ~~skill~~ [[Skills:~~Resource Processing~~#~~Gas Cloud Harvesting~~|~~Gas Cloud Harvesting~~]]. ~~The skill book currently runs 24M isk, and~~ is ~~available from all normal NPC sellers.~~

Additionally, Ventures decrease their gas harvesting cycle duration with the [[Skills:Spaceship Command#Mining Frigate|Mining Frigate]]. This is the only other skill that increases gas harvesting yield.

General fitting and tanking skills are also recommended in order to safely fly a well fitted harvesting ship.

*Using a Venture you either want to train this to 2 (to use both harvesters) or 5 (to use T2 harvesters)

*If using a Venture you should train Mining Frigate to 3 or 4 at least as it gives an increased yield per level
